Highlights too yellow

When highlights turn slightly yellow after washing, you can effectively tone them to achieve a more desirable shade. Here are two options for toning:

Option 1: Using Champagne, Frost, and Lilac

  1. Mix 10 grams of champagne, 10 grams of frost, and 5 grams of lilac with a 1.5% peroxide developer.
  2. Use a mixing ratio of 1 part toner mixture to 1.5 parts developer.
  3. Apply the toner mixture to the yellow highlights evenly.
  4. Visual processing is recommended for up to 20 minutes.

This toning option helps neutralize the yellow tones and achieve a more balanced and appealing shade.

Option 2: Using Liquid Jewlz with Prosecco and Lavender

  1. Mix 15 grams of prosecco and 5 grams of lavender with a 1.5% peroxide developer.
  2. Follow a mixing ratio of 1 part toner mixture to 2 parts developer.
  3. Apply the toner mixture to the yellow highlights evenly.

This option, using Liquid Jewlz, also helps in toning down the yellow hues and achieving the desired result.

Both options can be effective in neutralising unwanted yellow tones in highlights, providing a more pleasing hair colour.
